Friday's Hunt with Mach 1

Friday found DeArmitt and I with Mach 1 on a marathon Relic Dig in the Red Soil of Va. Mach has his GPX 5000 down pretty good as evidenced by his earlier post. These are Amazing machines on that ground. I just wish we lived closer to that place to get even more time in with the GPXs. DeArmitt had the most amazing find of the day...A Counterfeit 1861 2 1/2 Dollar Gold piece. Most likely Copper and heavily plated with gold. The trouble was it was broken in 3 pieces of which he found 2. All in all it was a good and Great Friends. It doesn't get much better than that.

Looks like you had a great hunt. Nice 2 Ring Prussian bullet and the counterfeit 2 1/2 dollar gold is a great find.

What a cool coin Bob. Looks like you all had a blast. See you at a future Relic Rescue Hunt in Culpeper?
